Would you spend a Month in Iran if the trip was free ?

Being a history buff, a month in the land of Persia would be enlightening.

If I were allowed a suitable weapon for defense, then yes. But if I were totally unarmed in that heckhole of a place, I would gladly decline. Probably just as well go to Somalia.

No

It is a gorgeous country, great geographical and architectural beauty. The food is great. The people are friendly. I would go there in a New York second. The Iranians I have known have all been cultured, elegant, clear, and excellent companions. It is Israel and Saudi Arabia that I would avoid like the plagues they are.

Have a nice trip--don't eat any pork chops if you value your head

This nation is bad enough in terms of out of control government.

No.

Can i have a hot dog with chili and cheese,instead?

No thanks

Not only no, but HELL NO!

Sure I love to travel to other countries. I travel to europe all the time, and once to north Africa. So it would be interesting to see Iran!!!!

Not if you paid me!!

If Sandra Bullock were able to accompany me!

lol...

Neither Iran, Pakistan, Syria, China, North Korea, Afghanistan, Somalia, Nigeria, Saudi Arabia, Iraq, nor Egypt. Come to think of it, I would not spend a month in Texas, and I was born, raised and own land there.

Not even if the trip was free AND I got paid a butt load of money on top of it

To understand Iran.





The most efficient way to defeat your adversaries is to understand them. - Sun Tzu, Art of War.



I believe that Iran is not really the bad guy. There is to much propaganda against Iran to have me believe that they are the enemy. So when I say to understand them , doesn't mean they are my adversaries. It means that I would go there to find the truth of who the real criminals are. I am sworn to protect America from all threats... foreign and DOMESTIC.

North Korea maybe...

No. I dont think you would be able to leave in one month. Jail there is forever.

It would be very interesting and probably lots of fun. Lots of history there.

No dollar amount is worth that. Nothing is in that country I want to see, eat, smell, or experience.

And be accompanied by a "guide" the entire time who makes sure that tourists don't see anything the Iranian regime doesn't want them to see? No, thanks. If I visit another country, I'd like to be able to move around freely. Even China allows tourists to do that nowadays.

Errrrrm yeah most definately

har har! my favorite comedian!

Absolutely!

Lots of very interesting historilcal sites, rich cultural venues, excellent spicy foods, and the Iranian women are beautiful... So yeah, I'd go for sure!

Sure, why not? They hate America? So does everyone else. I've never been to Iran.

I don't. I hate government but that's not the same thing.

why would I spend my money there and support their economy?

IRAN? Oh hell no!
Iraq? Not a chance!
Israel? Not even.

Middle East? Can you say "tinder box" - No thanks

Good points. I'd still go.

I can understand that... however, there are still many other parts of the world I'd love to see. However, when I think of traveling and vacation time, I still gravitate towards three locations I know and enjoy and prefer: Puerto Vallarta, Cabo San Lucas, and backpacking to Kibbe Lake in the Yosemite Wilderness.

Absolutely. The people of Iran are wonderful people who have always been very warm towards Americans.
It's the religious extremist leaders who are the problem but, no more of a problem than our own religious extremists here who have no problem railing against anyone how doesn't follow there prescribed religious doctrine... Gay Rights & Abortion are their main issues and if you don't go along you end up like Dr Tiller, remember how Bill O'Reilly called him "Tiller the Baby Killer"... then he was shot dead by a religious extremist! , or Dr. David Gunn, or Dr. John Britton and James Barrett, or Shannon Lowney and Lee Ann Nichols, or Robert Sanderson, an off-duty police officer, or Dr. Barnett Slepian who were all killed by AMERICAN RELIGIOUS EXTREMISTS! In Fact More Americans have been killed by American Religious Extremists than by Iranian Religious Extremists!

The wonderful people of Iran are so warm because they're huddling around burning US flags and chanting "death to America!"

Almost looks like a Teabagger protest! Only they would need a few "don't tread on me" flags and some images of our own president dressed like a Witch Doctor or the Joker to burn!

Yes, there is a certain resemblance. Probably because they're both wearing goofy hats :-) But the teabaggers -- as well as the Occupy movement, I might add -- remind me a lot more of these protesters for some reason:





Not that I'd compare Obama to Mubarak, mind you. Obama is just another hand puppet of America's corporate owners, who pulled Dubya's empty suit off their wiggling fingers and then rammed those same fingers deep into Obama's keister. It is this corporate and banking mafia that both the Occupy protesters and the teabaggers rose up against, with the result that the corporate media made both of them look like complete idiots (which, admittedly, didn't take a lot of effort in some cases).

My point is that when Egyptians or Libyans protest against their corrupt leaders, it's a revolution, an Arab spring. But when Americans do the same, they're either peppersprayed and beaten by jackbooted thugs, or made to look like complete idiots by both the media and its brainwashed consumers who buy into the two-party scam and believe the lie of the lesser evil (a group that appears to include you).
